19.3 Digital Input assignment

The default digital input socket assignment illustrated in
Table 19.2 may be changed if desired. Each selection
button may be assigned to any one of the four rear panel
digital input sockets.
Input assignment setup is accessed through the Supernait
program
mode. To switch into (or exit from) program mode
press and hold the
preamplifier mode). Program mode is indicated by a
flashing indicator on the front panel volume control.
note:
If no function is operated within five minutes of
entering program mode the Supernait will return to normal
mode automatically.
Once in program mode, to assign a digital input socket,
first press the required

19.4 record outputs

The selection buttons arranged along the lower bank
select the source signal to be routed to the Supernait's
record outputs.
These separate source and record sections enable one
source (a CD player, for example) to be listened to whilst
the output from another (say, the tuner) is simultaneously
selected for recording.
note:
Simultaneous and independent listen and record is
not possible with two digital sources.

A stereo set of speaker connection sockets is provided
on the rear panel. Custom Naim Audio loudspeaker
connectors are supplied to make the connection and in
order to comply with current European safety regulations
these should always be used. Naim Audio speaker cable
will provide the best results; however, a wide range of
speaker cable types can be used without risk of damage
to the amplifier.
Ensure when connecting speakers that they are "in
phase". That is, the positive and negative connection
orientation at both the speaker and amplifier ends of the
cable is the same for both channels.

A 3.5mm headphone socket is provided on the front
panel. Insertion of a headphone plug will automatically
switch on the headphone amplifier and mute the speaker
outputs unless the Supernait is set up not to mute.
To prevent (or re-enable) automatic speaker muting,
enter program mode and press the
button.

bi-amp out
A
(preamplifier output) DIN socket is provided
on the rear panel to enable an external upgrade power
amplifier or second (bi-amp) power amplifier to be used.
note:
Bi-amp out is the preferred socket for all external
power amplifier connections.
Also provided are separate
in
sockets. In normal use these sockets are connected by
an external link plug. The link plug should be removed only
if a power supply upgrade is to be used or an alternative
preamplifier is to use the Supernait power amplifier section.
Diagrams 20.3 to 20.5 illustrate use of these sockets.
When an external preamplifier is connected to the
Supernait
power-amp in
socket, a fault will initially be
indicated by the

The Supernait provides an unfiltered analogue stereo
subwoofer
output via a pair of RCA Phono sockets.
note:
The subwoofer output is a duplicate of the
preamplifier output. No low-pass filtering is applied.
